Road sign identifying vulnerable zones around a municipal drinking water system
Drinking Water Protection Zone is an official designation in the Canadian province of Ontario for areas that feed a well or municipal water supply.
Road signs identify a “Drinking Water Protection Zone” with a graphic of a water glass. These signs are a standardized sign used across the province to indicate areas where a spill of toxic liquids including oil could impact a source of water for a municipal drinking water system.[1][2]
The signs are part of a large effort in Ontario known as Drinking Water Source Protection.[3] There are approximately 800 signs installed across the province.[4][5]
